Create a wishlist now. Then, 24 hours before Prime Day, check prices. If a set is already at its lowest, buy it before the rush. Lightning deals are great, but they vanish fast. You don’t want to be the person who missed out on a half-price Star Destroyer because you were debating the color of your coffee mug.
Use multiple devices. A phone for browsing, a laptop for checkout. And for the love of all things Jedi, make sure your payment details are up to date. There is nothing sadder than losing a deal because your credit card expired. It’s a first-world problem, but it stings like stepping on a loose brick.
Consider the “bundle” trick. Sometimes Amazon offers a small discount if you buy two qualifying sets. It’s not huge, but it can save you a few dollars and get you a free minifigure or two. Every little bit helps when you’re trying to justify a $200 purchase to your partner.
